4 THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JUNE 8, 1897-14 PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. TUESDAY... cRosp THE EV STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. Ax a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t71n order to avoid delays, om ac count of perso! absence, letter: THE STAR xhould not be addre to any individual connected with office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Busine: ments, according Stones and Ginss Houses. Although it is not so intended, there ts something humorous in the exchanges now going on in the Senate between democratic Senators un the subject of protection, in- cidental or otherwise. Every man of them is living in a glass house. The party itself lives In a glass house. Why should there be any fusilasle of stones, therefore, unless as a somewhat reckless diversion? Every- body's domicile is more or less injured by it, and the great central domicile cracked all around. ‘The truth is, as the record incontrovert- ibly shows, the advocacy of free trade, properly so called, has never had, except in a very few individual cases, absolute sincerity behind it. When the democracy, as a party, indulged in it, as in 1992, it simply, to use a colloquialism, was talking through its hat. It was playing for the time being upon a hastily aroused preju- dice against high protection. But it never seriously contemplated giving the country genuine free trade. Among the party lead- ers who subscribed, apparently, to the platform of that year were Mr. Whitney, Mr. Brice, Mr. Hill, Mr. Gorman, Mr. Mur- phy, Mr. Smith, Mr. Henry G. Davis and Mr. Flower. These men were not free traders then, and they are not free traders now. They simply subscribed to the cry of the day, and no sooner having won with it, set to work to nullify it. They succeeded in doing so. The Gorman-Wilson tariff bill was no more than a travesty on the plat- form upon which the democracy had re- turned to power. But it represented all that the party could do in the way of tariff legislation. So, why this twitting of one democrat by another for accepting the fruits and bene- fits of protection for his own home inter- ests? They have all done it. They will all continue to do it. Their people, democrats as well as republicans, not only expect such benefits, but demand them. Protec- tion is protection, whether incidental or otherwise. Every duty that is now im- posed carries protection in one form or an- other. The duty on sugar is a revenue duty, but it carries very substantial inci- dental n along with it, and the sugar planters in demanding it want it laid with this protection feature kept well in view. And it is so laid, and with the assistance of so-called free trade demo- cratic votes. The time may come when political lead- ers will fight a little more out in the open, protect and with a clearer enunciation of party principles. But that time. more’s the pity, does not seem to be near at hand. —. 02 ounds for Despair. No Let those gentlemen who indulge in a pessimistic mood now and then, and while under its influence despair of Congress and its workings, consider the scene which oc- curred in the French Chamber of Depu- ties Saturday. M. Richard, a socialist deputy, had referred to some of his col- leagues as “police spies,” and had been called to order by President Brisson of the chamber. Instantly there was an up- roar. Members of the socialist varty sprang to their feet and with the full strength of their lungs applied the coarsest and most insulting epithets to the presi- dent. They defied his authority, and car- ried matters to such an extreme that in the end the president was obliged to ad- journ the meeting. In a sense he surren- dered to them. He was forced to suspend the public business at their dictation. Can one conceive of such an episode in either house of the American Congress at this day? There are some spirited ex- changes in the House now and then, and sometimes members are called to order, but never without obeying the call. The Speaker's voice can always be heard. and his authority when he mvokes it is always respected. During the most exciting days ia the first session of the Fifty-First Con- when the Speaker was enforcing rules which were working a parliamentary revolution, the angriest of those on their feet in protest never got beyond the Speak- er’s authority. He always kept the House im band, and in session as long as the busi- ness required it. Trere ts of course a marked difference in temperament between an American and a Frenchman, or a Spanish or German or an Italian. Scenes reported in the Chamber of Deputies, the Cortes, and the Reich- stag are quite inconceivable in our Con- gress. But even when that difference and otber things are allowed for, there Is siill recm for the boast that our law-making body 1s one of deliberation, and that our form of party government ts freer from rancors and personal hatreds, and more accommodating to honest differences of opinion on public questions, than any other in the world. Not infrequently, indeed, the warmest personal friendships exist between leaders of opposite parties. Their public contentions, heated and strenuous as they often are, each man exerting himself to the utmest to carry the day, rarely result in even a temporary suspension of their social relatiors. Let us not despair of the republic until things get to be very much worse than they are—say until M. Simpson, or M. Lewis, by the violence of his opposition and criticism, forces M. Reed to escape only through a hasty suspension of the public business. —++e—____ A novelist is advertised as having suf- fered nei vous prostration immediately after getting through with her latest book. The present demand for literary shocks is such that it might be profitable for the publish- ers to go further and guarantee a similar result to each purchaser. ———++e—___ The business of sympathizing with tae working man seems to be the only one which is to be relied upon for steady em- pieyment. ———- +> __ Execute the Law. Durrant, the California murderer, whose case has just been appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States, stands regu- larly convicted, and has been regularly sentenced to be hanged. The negro Mitchell, who has just been dispatched by a mob in Obio, had been regulariy indicted, tried, convicted and sentenced to pay the maxi- mum penalty imposed by the law for his crime. Everything in the matter of the trial had been regular, and, so far as known, prompt enough. In the one case the complaint is that the justly imposed sentence of the court Is frustrated by the expert fencing of expert lawyers. In the other case the complaint was that the penalty imposed under the law was wholly inadequate for the crime committed. There- fore, the mob took matters into their own hands, and meted out the punishment that they in their fury thought just. But while the two cases differ thus widely, who shall say that the spirit of trifling manifested in the one, and which has long outraged justice in our affairs, @id not help arouse the hideous spirit mani- fested in the other? How many of the men who crowded around that Urbana jail knew that the wretch they sought had re- ceived all the sentence the law their repre- sentatives had made decreed? Who of them but had not heard of the skillful maneuvering in criminal practice that goes en all over the country, by which guilty men often escape the proper punishment for their crimes? What more likely than that there were men present who thought that here was another case of hocus-pocus made legal, in violation of the plain inten- tions of the law-makers, and so lent them- selves readily to an act which is a blot upon the reputation of the state, no matter the spur that urged them to commit it? There is no justification for the mob at any time in any properly organized com- munity. The people, having enacted laws, should obey them, and submit their execu- tion to the properly constituted authorities. The way to correct any inequalities ex- posed in laws by their operation, or any lax execution of them by the regular authorities, is for public sentiment in an orderly way to take prompt note of the delinquency and apply a remedy. Sat- urday The Star made the Durrant case the text for some observations on the subject. Yesterday Gov. Russell of North Carolina, a distinguished lawyer, was quoted in the dispatches from Raleigh in these words: “Mobs who attack jails should be shot down. Lawless men must be made to know that this is a land of law. The way to end lynch law is to remove the excuse for it. It is no justification to say, what is not denied, that in many cases the victims deserve what they get. Barbarian brutes who commit nameless crimes must be killed and killed quick, but let it be done under the forms of law. Let there be none of the law's delay. Give the executive the power to call a court instanter, order a judge by telegraph to the county of the crime, and try the criminal. If proper for an appeal, convene the appellate court on shortest possible notice, send down the judgment, and ‘instantly perform its man- dates.” This is to the point, and covers both the Ohio and the California cases. “The law's delay” is often the excuse for Judge Lynch's haste. Abolish the one, and @ long step is taken toward abolisiing the other. ——__++ = —__ Sunday Strect Cars in Toronto. An interesting example of municipal evo- lution is just now furrished by the city of Teronto, Ontario, in the matter of the running of street cars ou Sunday. For years this city has been a strict observer of the Sabbath and to visitors the absolute lack of transportation facilities on that day has been a cause for wonderment and perhaps i.convenience. By the terms of their charters the roads are permitted to appeal not oftener than once in three years to the votes of the community on the question of Sunday cars. Seven years ago the proposition to permit Sunday running was voted down by over 2,00) majority. Four years ago it waS again negatived, but by only 900) majority. Recently an- other vote was taken and the companies were given permission to run Sunday cars, by a majority of nearly 59. It is suggest- ed that perhaps one of the strongest fac- tors in this change of sentiment was the prospect that the city would secure a tional revenue from the roads. The munici- pality has an excellent arrangement with the traction companies that produces a handsome sum annually for the support of the city, which, being bas ceipts of ihe roads, will be by the opering of Sunday traffic. ——_—__ se0< An Excellent Appointment. dent McKinley could not well have done better by the District in the selection of a superintendent of charities than he did yesterday in the appointment of Mr. Lewis. When properly administered the pc is far from easy. It involves many delicate duties, and requires rare tact and judg- ment, in addition to @ thorough acquaint- ance with the modern methods of treating the poor of large cities. When well chosen the local supetintendent of charities should be a scientific administrator, a deviser and an originator. His previous work here as agent of the Board of Chiidren’s Guardians has demonstrated that Mr. Lewis is such a man, and the President is to be thanked for having ignored the clamor and the pressure from the applicants who, despite their total lack of fitness for the post, rushed in with political influences behind them, in search of the appointment. ‘The prompt confirmation of Mr. Lewis should follow as a matter of course. Nicola Tesla announces that he will be able to telegraph without any connections save those which the earth itself affords. if this prediction comes true the overhead wire problem will be greatly simplified. ——_+ +e —___ The Havana newspaper which compares Spain to Turkey and this country to Greece accepts a great deal of odium for the sake of counting itself in advance on the win- ning side. -_———__s e+o____—_ General Weyler again announces that the war will soon be over.
